The Big Sioux River divides Iowa on the east side from South Dakota on the west side. The Missouri River divides Nebraska on the South side from Iowa and South Dakota on the North Side.
The state boundaries are marked by rivers. Sioux City sits on a major bend in the Missouri River and this dominates its geography. The Sioux City metropolitan area (Siouxland) covers portions of three US states it is primarily in Iowa, but extends westward into South Dakota (North Sioux City) and Nebraska (South Sioux City). Sioux City is proud of its frontier history and you can find markings all over town dedicated to the western exploration done by Lewis and Clark. Most of the rest of the United States between it and Denver is dominated by wide expanse of sparsely populated prairie. Sioux City sits on the cusp of the westernmost reaches of the industrial Midwest.
